Despite Twitter’s best efforts, I’ve managed to bring back Twitter Digest from the bring of destruction to work with the new Twitter API (v1.1). Version 2.8 of the plugin has just been released and should be considered unstable until I’ve had a chance to test it over the a few days. However, considering 2.7 was […]

It isn’t fatal, but it isn’t looking good for my WordPress Plugin, Twitter Digest. Because of Twitter’s requirement for authentication, even for publicly available data, it won’t be easy for Twitter Digest to access v1.1 of the Twitter API. v1.0 was deprecated this past week, so no digests can be produced anymore. I’m trying to […]

Anyone using the Twitter Digest WordPress plugin may notice that it doesn’t work anymore. Twitter has upgraded their API and I haven’t had the time to upgrade the plugin. It is on my TODO list. If there are any developers out there that would like to take a shot at fixing up the plugin, I’d […]

FYI, there is definitely something weird going on with Twitter Digest with respect to putting tweets in the correct 24 hour period. My gut says Twitter has changed something in the feed, b/c the plugin has worked flawlessly for me until today. I will investigate and issue a fix ASAP. Update: I’m not sure if […]

Thanks to Brian at www.bigwatersmallboat.com I’ve discovered that Twitter Digest doesn’t work in PHP4. I’ll put PHP4 support at the bottom of my todo list, but unless someone really can’t upgrade to PHP5 and really wants to use Twitter Digest, I likely won’t get to it. However, I’m more likely to get to it if […]

I’ve updated Twitter Digest with a few new features. You can download the new version here. Here are the changes: Added check for username/password so TD won’t check Twitter unless there is a username and password, thus avoiding obvious errors at install time. Added ability to ping Twitter from the options page. Added ability to […]
